FREEZE DEVICE and SUBDEVICE Commands
FREEZE DEVICE or SUBDEVICE temporarily suspends the access authorities
granted to users on an ACL. While a device or subdevice is frozen, only the owners of
the authorization record, the primary owner’s group manager, and the local super ID
can access the device or subdevice.
An owner of a device, the primary owner’s group manager, and the super ID can
freeze a device authorization record. Similarly, an owner of a subdevice’s authorization
record, the primary owner’s group manager, and the super ID can freeze a subdevice
authorization record.
